-Benzynes can be utilized to construct heterocyclic motifs using various nucleophilic and cycloaddition trapping reactions. Acridines have been synthesized by capture of -diarylimines with benzynes generated by classical methods (i.e., from -elimination of precursor arene compounds), although in poor yields. We report here that these imines can be trapped by benzynes generated by the hexadehydro-Diels-Alder (HDDA) reaction in an efficient manner to produce 1,4-dihydroacridine products. These dihydroacridines were subsequently aromatized using MnO to provide structurally complex acridines.
苯炔可通过各种亲核反应和环加成捕获反应用于构建杂环基序。虽然产率较低,但通过经典方法(即从前体芳烃化合物的β-消除)生成的苯炔捕获二芳基胺已合成了吖啶。我们在此报告,这些亚胺可以被十六脱氢狄尔斯-阿尔德(HDDA)反应高效生成的苯炔捕获,以产生1,4-二氢吖啶产物。这些二氢吖啶随后用MnO芳构化,以提供结构复杂的吖啶。
